New Delhi, April 15 : Noting that the parties involved resolved their differences and eventually got married, the Supreme Court quashed an FIR lodged in 2013 over allegations of rape after the accused as well as the complainant said it was an outcome of some misunderstanding between them.
A bench of Justices A.M. Khanwilkar and Dinesh Maheshwari said: Considering the nature of allegations in the FIR and the realisation of the fact that due to miscommunication, FIR came to be registered at the relevant point of time which issues/misunderstanding have now been fully resolved and the parties are happily married since October 11, 2014, the basis of the FIR does not survive.
